SEEKING WORK: Africa or Remote

Java (Spring, Struts2, GWT), Python (Django), Jython hacker. solid experience in jQuery and good in HTML/CSS. A bit of Android.

I have 4 years professional experience. I worked for an ISP, where I developed in house network monitoring software, wrote web app extensions to Sisco's SCE for IP data monitoring and analysis, and built a set of SMS applications (HTTP, SMPP Gateway + Web SMS), to cite a few. I worked on personal projects that did not take off (hard to sell IT thing in Africa). Afterwards, I did some contract work for people.

I am now looking for an opportunity to work on bigger projects; projects that have impact.

A final note: I have a solid academic background in statistical data analysis; I can help turn your application data into gold.

SEEKING FREELANCER: Javascript Programmer (Seattle/Bellevue : Onsite preferred) - http://www.imprev.com

We are looking for a Javascript Pro to build a rich-client interface for our Application. Contract work for 6 months.

You’ll be working with a team of full-stack developers building a large, browser-based application using Backbone/Marionette and communicating with the server (implemented in Java) using JSON-RPC and Barrister (https://github.com/coopernurse/barrister) (we’re not RESTy… you’re cool with that, right?). You’ll be rationalizing wireframes against our API, interacting with business folks directly, and building highly interactive,modular interfaces that plug into our existing architecture.

Skills

> You write JavaScript…

> You’ve written a web application that’s rendered completely on the client

> You understand the tradeoffs of implementing test automation for browser-based JS

> You understand how to write something that works with old and new browsers alike

> You are comfortable talking to business people on your own in order to flesh out requirements

> You can write markup and CSS for your view code that doesn’t use things like clearfix or conditional comments

Plus other stuff, probably needed to survive:

> Several years (3+) of development in a team environment under your belt

> Basic understanding of *nix environment (look through logs, bounce services, etc.)

> Be a collaborator

> Be nice
